(b) Employer contributions upon reinstatement from qualified military service. If any member leaves the service of the county for the purposes of performing qualified military service and shall have been reinstated to the service of the county within 90 days after such member’s separation from such qualified military service, then the county shall promptly pay into the trust fund an amount equal to twice the employee contribution which the employee would have made if he or she had not been absent on such leave, and if his or her compensation had continued to be the same as he or she was earning at the time of the commencement of the leave; provided, however, that no part of such payment by the county shall be refundable to the employee pursuant to Section 45-37-123.104.
